Jim Nabors's hometown

Hey - I'm planning my vacation for this August, and I'm heading into Mississippi (Tunica and Tupelo) and into Alabama (mainly to take my mom on the Hank Williams, Sr. Trail). Today I located Jim Nabors's hometown, Sylacauga. Is there a museum there devoted to Jim/Gomer? What can folks in

Re: Floyd's Flavors.

High octane ethyl is nothing more than Premium gas, or High Test. I do not think you would want to drink it. With gas going up another .04 cents over the weekend, I wish I had Barney's old Army surplus Harley with the side car. It should be good for at least 60 miles per gallon. and with that

Re: TV Land

Hey Everyone, I must say that maybe the execs. at TV Land heard the buzz a while back because a few weeks ago, I noticed that TV Land had puts TAGS on at 5:00 pm e.s.t. AND 7:00 pm e.s.t. for an hour episode each day! It's always a good feeling coming home from work but it's even

leaving their nest

Greetings everyone! News flash from the Mayberry Gazette Winken told Blinken, and Winken told Nod and Nod told Barney and I'm tellin' you all...our little bluebird nest of Fifes have flown the coop! They were so cute as they grew each and every day...and Barney and Thelma Lou were such

re: Reversed Scenes

Is it just amazing? I mean I (we) have all watched all 268 episodes countless times and yet there are things that we have never noticed. For example, the other night I watched The Rumor where Barney mistakenly thinks Andy and Helen are getting married and he and the town donate money to redo

Those Gabby Darlin' Boys

Cheri, I can only think of one time I heard the Darling boys speak, and that was to thank Aunt Bee for the supper in the jail cell. Dave Strang I passed it. I didn't HEAVE it (Ernest T. Bass) - Sucker-punch spam with award-winning protection. Try the free

smashed pennies

At work part of my job is to move railroad cars so I smashed some pennies to give out to my daughters and son-in-law to protect them in their travels. My great neice who is 3 years old was over for Sunday Dinner so I gave her one too and told her it would protect her in her travels. She forgot

Mashed Pennies

Hey To All, While on a trip to Chicago last fall, I visited the American Girl Place with the ladies in our group, and Frank toured the Museum Of Science Industry with the guys. He got a mashed penny from there. I also have one from The Alamo in San Antonio Texas. I guess these aren't

All kinds of thoughts

Hi Friends... Its so wonderful to be with you again. I have to THANK KEN for describing the old time gas stations. Air is sometimes even free..but ice is .25 a cup. and they rob you when it comes to vaccuming. I was reminded of my grandfather when he worked at the co-op gas station. And

Smoker's Bulge

I know this is a knitpicky one, but a trained noticer can't help it. In the episode where Andy delivers the baby out at Sam Becker's house, you'll notice that Andy's shirt pocket is closed and flat against his chest until after the baby is delivered, and he decides to go out on the porch to

That was Allen Melvin

As a former Marine I feel the need to correct an error. He played an Army recruiter. I have a compeltion about these things Rick Charlottesville, Va.

Correction on Newlywed

Well I jumped into the question too quickly about the character from Jailbreak who was a Newlywed I'm kinda like Barney sometimes I fire off my answer and then ask questions later. Upon further investigation Tom was asking about another favorite and frequent Guest actor. It was Bob McQuain.

Another Fan

I was at a Gaither Homecoming concert last Friday night listening to some great gospel music when they got to one of the places they just fool around and have some fun. Anyway, Kevin Williams (the guitar player) was going on with Gordon Mote (the piano player). Kevin was doing something and

Re: reversed scenes

Thanks for the two posts about reversed scenes on TAGS from Runaway Kid and Barney's First Car episodes. But neither of these episodes is the reversed scene I was referring to. Any other trained noticers gonna guess? Mr. Schwamp ___ WBMUTBB mailing

Re: Allen Melvin

I'm afraid the Untrained Voice is incorrect about Allen Melvin playing the newlywed husband. The episode referred to was Jailbreak where Barney looks in on the newlywed couple smooching in their trailer parked at the Half Moon Trailer Park. The couple's name in the script is the Franklins. The
